There is a lot to love about this listing at 261 10th Ave, especially “savings the money”, but I’m not quite sure what’s to love more:

Is it the insanely awesome gold coverlet accented by leopard print throw pillows and zebra print chair?

Is it the built in ballet studio that screams tutus and Baryshnikov? However, the ceiling looks a little low to soar like a Swan…

Is it the animal paintings in the foyer that look to be horses, or maybe at least one Giraffe?

Or could it simply be the recent price reduction to start off the new year? A price reduction from an original asking of $1,675,000 to the New Year’s price of $1,398,000…more than a QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS.

It’s at a juncture like this when (proper) staging comes in handy, as does realistic pricing and shelving any visions of grandeur and opulence. Personal tastes aside, this is a great house, in an excellent location.

We have been told to encourage buyers to “bring a reasonable offer”. That means, tell your friends. This is a chance to have a single family home at a condo price and the seller is extremely motivated. What you might be reading on tax records is pretty much useless. There are two large bedrooms and a sunroom that can be a third small bedroom or office. There is a formal dining room, formal living room, Edwardian details galore, and the entire lower level could either be a large media room, office, playroom or anything really. There is tons of storage space, a huge front yard, the home is detached on all sides and full of light, and it is a wonder this house is still available. The lot is zoned RH-2. We have reduced the price 5% already, and we’re encouraging any reasonable offer.

You know we rarely plug listings on this site, but this is truly an opportunity that will pass someone by if they don’t make a move. Make an offer on this home, or tell your friends about it!
